Spring has come to Prouts Neck! Right here at our own seaside resort the grass is greening, the forsythia is out, and the trees are budding! The temperatures are coming around each day a little more, although -because we are after all an oceanfront hotel- the breezes off the ocean are still a little cool.
We are getting ready to open on Mother’s Day Weekend, (Friday May 7) and we will be posting a Mother’s Day package soon!
Also we are renovating the front entrance steps at the inn. Look for progress on this project right here!
High winds and small waves crash against a lee shore that is treacherously lined with a sandy beach today as a group of Opti sailors battle for their lives!
Pure skill, brawn and sailing smarts were put to the test to keep their ships from running up against the sandy beach… and certain destruction!!!!
Interesting story here in the lobby this morning as Stu Taylor broadcast his morning radio show live!! Stu was connected with his radio studio and did his morning show right from the lobby. He had Jesse Henry our general manager on with him for the first half of the show!
The giggles could be heard on the sunporch at the Inn. Just down below at the beach summer had started! Our photographer hopped on a bicycle and coasted down the hill to the Sand Dollar beach.
These two girls had started summer, there was no turning back. Summer, swimming, beachin, lazy days digging in the sand… its all a go right here at Black Point Inn.
The steady wizz and whirr of road bikes could be heard in front of the Inn this morning as it seems Black Point Road was part of an early morning bike route…. perhaps a tour de Prouts Neck?
ok ok… no all yellow jerseys, but many different colored jerseys…. take a look!
Nice piece about Prouts Neck, Black Point Inn, the famous cliff walk and Scarborough Maine in the online version of Cookie magazine. Take a look!

Sunny and warm day here out on Prouts Neck at Black Point Inn. Our photographer thought it was a perfect day to capture a few images of the Sand Dollar beach just below the Inn. On his way out he noticed that the bicycles were out and ready for guests use.
At the beach the sand was warm, the water clear and the Inn could be seen just above the dunes. See you all here soon!
